So I've made a few videos on how terrible Prime Minister Carney of Canada is for backing the US in the war it started on Iran, and one question I get is how come I don't talk about how Iran cracked down on protesters so brutally before the war started. To answer, let me
I can't keep making videos on Carney's constant cockups over Iran. So I'm going to take the latest nonsense that is coming from him, try to come to a definitive conclusion and be done with it.
A fun day in the complicit with Genocide, True North, as Canadian Prime Minster Mark Carney, on the 3rd of March 2026, was forced to back off from his earlier tone deaf statement on the war of aggression on Iran1. Too bad it doesn't back off enough to keep him from being a Western Imperialist though...
Carney is a Trump bootlicker and a Western Imperialist warmonger when it really matters and there's no greater proof of that...
So as the holy month of Ramadan has started I wanted to talk about the role the month plays in my novel "Under The Full and Crescent Moon", and the answer is... it doesn't.
Ramadan has started, it's a month of piety, charity, self-reflection, and peace.
Too bad Israel and the US don't care about such things...
It's an strange thing to wonder if a sock puppet is a reliable narrator, but that's just one of the many thoughts raised by The Unraveling of Ou by Hollay Ghadery which is a novel narrated entirely by a sock puppet named Ou. This seemingly silly premise is used to great effect to tackle themes of mental illness, generational trauma, and internalized misogyny. It's an easy four out of five stars for me and easy to recommend to anyone interested in these sadly timeless issues. Or just wants to experience an incredibly beautifully written and insightful introspective tale about the mental prisons that we build for ourselves or are built for us by our circumstances.
So as it's #WorldHijabDay, I figured it was a good opportunity to talk about my novel "Under The Full and Crescent Moon" which, as you can see features hijabis, and actually the characters do discuss the practice.
And you might say
International Law doesn't seem to matter one bit when it comes to attacks against Muslim majority parts of the world. There's no better current example of that here on the 30th of Jan 2026 then
In The Country I love by Alaa Al-Barkawi is a messy family drama which isn't really my genre but perhaps it should be because this is a wonderful novel, the tl;dr is five stars, go preorder and/or buy if you're reading this after May 2026. Or find it in a library.
